  I don't know how to term things so that it will be obvious to everyone.

  Doing a 'grep' type of thing with the contents (what is possible with
the database) isn't generally useful.  When people want to search the body
they tend to want to do a full-text search, which isn't going to be
supported (There are external services such as Google that can do that
better anyway).
